Robotics and intelligent autonomous systems are significant factors in increasing efficiencies in manufacturing, improving supply chains and enhancing quality of life in our homes. Because these technologies are evolving at a rapid pace, it is important to keep knowledge and skills current and to learn strategies for managing the systems and those who use design and use them. Earning a Master of Engineering in Robotics & Intelligent Autonomous Systems will set you apart in a rapidly growing industry.
At the University of Cincinnati Online, our goal is to put you in a position to be a leader within the ever-changing robotics and autonomous systems engineering industry by providing a quality education.
This online program will provide you specialized training in a number of disciplines, including computer science, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, systems engineering, and project management. You will be exposed to a broad set of topics to innovate and envision new systems, while developing skills needed to build the reliable, safe, secure, and trusted systems of the future.
The Master of Engineering is an industry focused degree that combines technical mastery with professional skills. The Robotics & Intelligent Autonomous Systems engineering program provides training on advanced intelligent hardware devices and software so that individuals can design sophisticated autonomous robotic devices whose capabilities far surpass older purely electro-mechanical automation systems. Emphasis is placed on making these systems reliable, safe, and secure.
Industry 4.0 is an evolution toward inter-connectivity, automation, machine learning, and decisions based on real-time data acquisition. It is specifically designed to incorporate cutting-edge technical skills in the areas of big data, sensors, AI/machine learning, additive manufacturing (3-D printing), and cyber-security. UC’s Online Master of Engineering in Robotics & Intelligent Autonomous Systems program infuses Industry 4.0 into the curriculum to ensure graduates are equipped for the future of engineering.
To choose between an MEng and an MSE, you’ll need to carefully consider your personal and professional goals. If you see yourself pursuing a Ph.D. or a career in academia, a research-focused Master of Science in Engineering may be the right decision. Alternatively, if you want to increase your business operations knowledge and learn strategies for leading teams of engineers, pursuing a practice-oriented University of Cincinnati Online Master of Engineering degree could be the proper path. Read our blog detailing MEng vs MSE degrees.
UC Online has partnered with hundreds of companies to offer tuition scholarships to employees, spouses and dependents.
In very limited situations a program may offer pertinent courses you can take both on-campus and online. Typically, you choose your mode of education (in-person or distance) at the beginning of your program.
No. You must choose one program to apply for in any given semester.
Successful applicants to the Master of Legal Studies (MLS) program will have a Bachelor’s degree and a minimum GPA of 2.75. Applications will be reviewed holistically, such that work experience and other factors indicating the likelihood of success will be given considerable weight.
While the University of Cincinnati Online MLS program is not requiring any admissions test, prospective students may submit a GRE, LSAT, GMAT, or other standardized admissions test score to supplement their application. This is encouraged if the potential applicant does not meet the GPA requirement above.
